Extended Product Information

FAQs

What size back box do I need?

This socket is designed to fit standard UK back boxes between 25mm and 35mm deep.

Does this socket come with screws?

Yes, it includes colour-coded fixing screws to match the black nickel finish.

Is the finish prone to rust?

While durable, it is best used in dry indoor environments to maintain the integrity of the black nickel plating.

Can I use this for satellite cables?

Yes, this socket is designed for standard coaxial connections which are compatible with most UK television and satellite aerial cables.

What is the warranty period?

The product is backed by a 10-year manufacturer guarantee.

What is the size of the faceplate?

The faceplate measures 88mm x 88mm x 8mm.

Troubleshooting

Signal quality is poor or flickering

Check that the inner conductor of the coaxial cable is securely seated in the terminal and not touching any shielding wires.

Faceplate sits unevenly against the wall

Verify that your back box is recessed correctly and that no excess wiring is pushing the plate away from the wall surface.

Screws do not reach the back box thread

Ensure the wall back box is within the required 25mm-35mm depth range; you may need box extenders if the box is too deep.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Premium black nickel aesthetic fits modern decor
  • Easy to install with provided colour-coded screws
  • Compatible with standard UK wall back boxes
  • Comprehensive 10-year manufacturer guarantee

Cons

  • Metallic finish prone to visible fingerprint smudges
  • Requires specific back box depth of at least 25mm
  • Not suitable for outdoor or high-moisture areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your power is isolated if the socket is near other electrical components. Remove the old faceplate, secure your coaxial cable into the rear terminal, and mount the plate to your 25mm-35mm back box using the provided screws. Ensure the included plastic gasket is positioned correctly to protect the wall finish. For long-term care, clean the surface periodically with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can strip the black nickel plating and lead to corrosion over time.
